13 YO Boy's Heartfelt Interaction With Lewis Hamilton Has Fans Reaching for the Tissue Box

Lewis Hamilton is amongst the few F1 drivers whose popularity has far-reaching implications that extend beyond the realm of their sport. His influence acts as a means of inspiration for millions around the globe. While people of all age groups look up to the seven-time world champ, children, in particular, follow the Briton as they also want to trod along the path taken by Hamilton.

Given the same, Hamilton rarely passes up a chance to interact with the kids. The latest of these interactions came when the 38-year-old gave an interview to a 13-year-old girl with preparations for the Sao Paulo GP underway.

 

The child, famous by the name of ‘Yuri Turbo’ on social media (uploaded on X by ‘Sir Lewis Updates,’) took the opportunity to thank Hamilton for being an amazing human being and welcoming her with kindness.

“To wrap up the day spectacularly, ladies and gentlemen, the boss — he is amazing. He welcomed me and was so kind. I didn’t want to leave his side. What a wonderful human being.”

Following the post, fans could not stop themselves from appreciating the Briton for his humble nature. The words of the young child only added to the appeal of the 38-year-old, as many fans took to X to heap praises on Hamilton.
